Splunk Data CollectorΒΆ
The foglamp-north-splunk plugin is designed to send data from FogLAMP to the Splunk system for collecting and analysis of data.
The process of creating a North Splunk is similar to any other north setup
Selecting the North option in the left-hand menu bar
Click on the add icon in the top right corner.
In the North Plugin list select the splunk option.
Click Next
Configure your Splunk plugin
URL: The URL of the splunk collector for events
Source: The source of data to send, this may be either FogLAMP readings or the FogLAMP statistics
Splunk authorisation token: an authorisation token that has been issued by the splunk data collector
Apply Filter: This allows a simple jq format filter rule to be applied to the connection. This should not be confused with FogLAMP filters and exists for backward compatibility reasons only.
Filter Rule: A jq filter rule to apply. Since the introduction of FogLAMP filters in the north task this has become deprecated and should not be used.
